Instances innumerable could be
cited, and the moral of them all
would be to learn a trade, and to
trust to industry and application for
promotion. The future of our boys is
the future of the nation. We have
not the slightest doubt that it Will be
brilliant and substantial; but the
individual cases of marked success
must always depend upon the capaci-
ty and industry Of the individuals.
Boys who look upon life as a serious
problem, that must be worked out
not played out, are able to take care
of themselves. The idlers, who OK
pect to live on money which they
do not earn, are the drones in the
great national hive of industry.

woman who viii accept the condi-
tions on which it is offered; and
those conditions are, as a rule, better
than they ever were before, the ex-
ceptions being in some of the most
crowded parts Of few large cities.
If, Their, there is want in the midst
of plenty, it may neither be imputed
to institutions, to an undue share
falling to capital, nor to obstructive
statutes in any great measure. 1t is
due in most cases either to physical
disability, accidental misfortune, or
to mental incapacity, or unwilling
ness to undertake the kind of work
that is waiting TO be done. I'm
doubtedly there are many forms of
wrong which are now sustained by
National or State legislation which
tend to a distribution of product
which is not equitable, and the
wasteful taxation of cities is a prime
cause of city pauperism. The com
mon undertaking in order to remedy
these wrongs is to promote addition
al legislation. We might go on in
this way, as they did in Great Brit
ain until at one period in the early
part of this century there were 1000
acts unrepealed on the statute books
of Great Britain for the regulation
of trade, commerce, industry and la,
Dor. Then came the true remedy
which led Buckle to say something
like this: "That the greatest pro.
gress in human welfare which has
been made in modern times had
come by the repeal of statutes fol
the regulation and direction of in,
dustry, much more than by the en-.
actment of others directed to the
same purpose" What is needed is
basis of fact either for the enact
ment or the repeal of laws. Had
the true financial relation of thi,
country to others been fully compre
hendcd at the beginning of the ciyi
war, and had the ability of the PEG
pie to bear taxation been fully con
sidered, the country might have es
capped all the vicious results of thu
Legal tender act, and in such even
would doubtless have been free from
debt at the present time. 1t is no
unreasonable to compute the cost o
the depreciation of the substitut,
for true money issued under til,
name of legal tender notes at TIL

paid obligations of the Unite,

Vermont has many distinguished
qualities. Among others, it is the
most beautiful of the New England
States. 1t has always had one great
United States senator and generally
two.
1t is the only state in the Union
that ever furnished a United States
minister to Great Britain that rep
resented no party in the country,
but was party in himself. 1t now
enjoys that great honor in the per-
son of Edward J. Phelps.
Another distinguished fact is
mentioned by Henry b. Stanton in
his posthumous memoir Random
Recollections," in which he says
referring to an anecdote unimpor,
tant for quotation here :
BY aqueer sort of analogy, this
reminds me Of the course of Yer.
mont during the mob period (anti
abolition mobs, l835-'8s) where
delivered from time to time some
anti-slavery addresses. l was mob
bed in every state from Indiana to

refrained from that fascinating re

ISLAND POND, JUNE 3, 1887.
Yermsns,s Centennial.

Vermont was the first addition to
the family of Is states composing
the Union that emerged from the
Revolution. The stormy quarrel
over their land titles which her set
tiers had with the authorities of
New York kept her out Of the
Union during the Revolutionary
war, though it did not keep her out
of the patriotic armies. In III
the people of Vermont formed q
constitution, and proclaimed them
selves an independent common
wealth, under the name of New
Connecticut. British emissaries
tried to intrigue with them against
the Is struggling colonies, but
Vermont was as true to the cause of
liberty then as she has been ever
since. But not until 1901, after
New York's demands had been set
tied by the payment of $50, 900, was
she finally admitted to the Union as
a state. During the first half of
this century the growth of the
state was very rapid; but if her peo-
pie have not increased in numbers
they have not diminished in reputa-
ton. If there has been anything
steadfast in this world of change it
has been the political principles of
the people of Vermont. A steadfast
old wing state, it wheeled easily into
the republican line in the campaign
of John G Fremont, and has since
kept its position without the shadow
of change. To-day the republican
party can muster in Vermont a
majority that is larger than the
whole democratic party of the
state.
Other states have outstrippct
Vermont in the race for commercial
influence. Her rugged hills cannot
compete with the fertile prairies o.
the West in anything but the pro
ductiOn of men. But through tn,
answering steadfastness of her PEG
pie and the abilities of her states
men, Vermont has exerted in tn
national councils an influence as dis
proportionate to her size as that size i
disproportionate to the magnitude o
Texas. The centennial year ought
to be observed by grand celebra
ton, and four years is none too lon,
time ahead to begin to plan TO
it.-Portland Press.

Greater prosperity than ever before

At the present time the average
rate of wages In the United States
in nearly every art which is of any
material Importance Is higher than
ever before; higher even, with very
few exceptions, than at the worst
period of paper money imitation in
1865, '66 and '67. On the other
hand, the prices of the necessities of
life are lower than they have been
since 1910. If we compute wages
both in rate and in purchasing
power, men of special skill and apti-
tude who are now occupied as fore
men or overseers in the very highest
departments of the mechanic arts.
are 100 per cent better off than at
the date named, for comparison, to
wit: 1865-'67. The average me-
chanic or artisan is IS per cent bet
ter off. The common laborer is Go
per cent better off. There has been
short period during the last five
years when good many common
laborers were out of employment
owing to the sudden cessation of
railway building between l8S2-'84'
In the same period q very small por.
ton of the operatives in iron works
and other africans found it difficult
to obtain work. The number unem-
ployed was, ] think, much exagger-
ated, That period has gone by.
There is work now waiting to be
done for every industrious man OF

The Future of Our Boys.

Mr.. Noah Brooks, whom all boys
will recognize as one Of the most
interesting writers for the young
people of this country, comments in
forcible way on a question Of ever
pressing Importance in the current
issue OF the Epoch. 1t Is, "What
shall be done with our boys ?" He
finds the learned profession full, and
many avenues of work either crowd
ed or closed. The sea, which for
merly gave occupation to thousand
of boys, is now sailed by vessels
manned by foreigners. The employ
ments once wholly filled by male
youths are now largely occupied by
women. These include clerical
positions, private secretaryShips, and
the like. 1t is true that the new
order Of things makes competition
sharper, and gives boys fewer
chances; but this country is so large
and its interests and demands so
multifarious, that there is always
something for every one to do. 1t
stands to reason that boys can not
achieve wealth and fame; but as the
years 60 by, the proportion of the
fortunate ones will constantly grow
larger. What is needed more than
anything else to add to the useful
ness and honor of coming genera
tons is higher and fuller appre,
citation of the dignity of labor.
We have in mind the experience
of a Maryland boy who was left
several thousand dollars by his
father. He did not squander it as
many boys would have done, but
he determined to spend it all, and
he did it in such way that it be-
came the very best investment he
could have made. He went into
one of the railway shops of the
city at nominal wages, and paid the
rest of his expenses out of his little
fortune. He learned all he could
in a practical way there, ant
then entered first class school oil
technology. BY the time he grad
uated his money was gone, but hi
was able to earn his way. He kept
on learning, and the consequence
was that he soon rose to an excellent
position and to-day he is in receipt
of a splendid salary, and is consid
cred one of the best men in his pro
fession in the country.
Mr.. Roberts, the wonderfully abb
and astute president Of the grea
Pennsylvania railroad, started GU
as chain carrier in a surveyin,
party. Mr.. Frank Thompson, tn
vice-president of the same road
was an apprentice in the Altoona
shops. Mr.. Samuel Spencer, of tn,
B. 81 O., and one of the best railroad
men in the country, was clerk not
